Morita Shokudo (Canteen)
Founded in 1913 (Taisho era), this classic canteen is a 1-minute walk from Kure Station. One of 'Kure's Three Great Canteens.' Customers choose side dishes from a vintage refrigerated display case—simmered tofu at 300 yen, rolled egg at 150 yen, and various Showa-era dishes. Open from 8:30 AM, it's the daily stop for local craftsmen, MSDF personnel, and students.
